)Hi,

)I'm afraid lily-git.tcl is broken.
)I've done a fresh install of Lilydev, using VirtualBox 4.0.4 on Win7.
)When i try to use lily-git.tcl, it begins working properly (says
)  Cloning LilyPond (this can take some time) ...
)  |git --git-dir=/home/janek/lilypond-git/.git init 2>@1
)  Initialized empty Git repository in /home/janek/lilypond-git/.git/

))
)But then nothing happens. It's been running for more than 30 minutes
)now, and still hasn't done anything (it only created an empty lilypond-git
)directory). I've checked my internet connection in virtual system and it's
)ok, also git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=lilypond.git;a=tree is available in
)my web browser.
)I remember that when i used lily-git.tcl some time ago (February? it was
)with VirtualBox 4.0.0, also on Win7), everything went smoothly and
)downloading was finished in, let's say, less than 2 minutes? I have a fast
)internet connection.
)

I use Lilygit.tcl every single day. I've just used it this morning - I can't 
produce patches without it.
I have to admit that I have not had to use lilygit to pull a brand new install 
for a few weeks, but nothing has been added to Lilygit.tcl for a lot longer 
than that.

So this must be very specific to the first time you try to pull the tree or I 
am wondering if you have 'git push' access and have set up a 'ssh' 
login/password that LilyGit is not built to handle that case.
